    Help me with regedit


    Howdy,
    After installing Intel Management Engine Components on my laptop, the name is shown as "Intel(R) Management Engine Components" in Add or Remove Programs.
    I wanna change it to "Intel® Management Engine".
    So I have created a .reg file as follows:

    *
    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

    [HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-3443910272-680828281-3805887909-1000\Software\Classes\Local Settings\MuiCache\ED\52C64B7E]
    "@C:\\Program Files\\Intel\\Intel(R) Management Engine Components\\Lang\\Resource.dll,-20000"="Intel® Management Engine"
    *

    The code works on my current OS and if I re-install the same Windows 7 or another Windows, it won't work since with each installation "S-1-5-21-3443910272-680828281-3805887909-1000" will change!
    So how can I change the above .reg file to dynamically detect that changing path and apply my code?
    No different if continue using .reg file or change it to .bat.
    Any help, please ?! :)

    Uhm, isn't the registry for every machine unique to that machine?
    Besides that, you are attempting to rename a registered trademarked application.

    Just curious.
    Why are you trying to rename this program?
    Like cyclops pointed out the program is a registered trademark.

    Thanks friends, I was not looking for legal advise, just trying to rename without removing (R):
    From:
    Intel(R) Management Engine Components
    To:
    Intel® Management Engine
    This is not illegal to just change the name shown in my Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs.

    This task is not important, I just wanna learn in the similar scenario how to do it since on each Windows installation:
    HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-3443910272-680828281-3805887909-1000
    Is different!

    Your not asking for legal advice and I'm not offering any legal advice.
    Just point out that it is a Registered Trade Mark.

    Have a nice day.

    Be careful about diddling within Windows Prime. You might find yourself, after enough diddling, reaching either for your restorable backups or your Windows install DVD because Windows suddenly become nonGenuine and/or un-authenticatable.

    ...in fairness to the OP, when a few of us were much younger, and we had DOS 3.3 and Windows 3.1, we diddled within command.com and altered a few of the display outputs. Naturally, our "command.coms" were sealed shut and never again saw the light of day.

    We have some members that are pretty proficient in the registry, just give it some time for them to see your post.

    Why is that any different than this?

    I think you're going to have a write a new REG-file, or, reRegistryEdit, using the new code.
    BTW, I use Resplendence's Registrar Registry Manager [with great care! I might add], there's free and fee versions.
